NOTICE TO TRAVELLERS
Standard of living and conditions with respect to the provision of utilities, sanitary services and the grading of services such as hotel accommodation vary considerably from one country to another. In other countries, the uninterrupted supply of water and electricity, local health conditions, levels of security and standards of food and beverages may differ from those enjoyed at home. In tropical climates, insects are commonly found inside and outside of any hotel, surf camp or guest house. Illness or inconvenience resulting from the services provided or omitted at the destination are outside the reasonable control of Beach Bum Tribe Adventures and Beach Bum Tribe Adventures accepts no responsibility for such illness or inconvenience. It is the traveler’s responsibility to adhere to the customs, rules and laws of the country he/she is visiting.

If this occurs, the traveler is responsible for all costs resulting from said expulsion and no refund will be issued for any unused portion of the traveler’s holiday. Beach Bum Tribe Adventures also reserves the right to off-load belligerent or rowdy travellers from its flights, including if necessary, making intermediate stops to off-load such travellers to the control of local police authorities. In the event of such off-loading, deplaned travellers will not receive any refund for unused air services and will be liable for arranging and paying for their own onward air travel, and liable to the airline for any cost incurred resulting from inappropriate behaviour including, but not limited to, additional landing and fuel charges.
